well whatever amount of screwing around in were you directed me seeme to make it work dont know what i did right but know it says nat type 2 thank you for you help and if so get back to me on on what i asked you about

plus rep for you +

Might as well save me the trouble and put your face in my cross-hairs, Why delay the inevitable?

yep, more or less it's all in there.. Lots of people aren't even familiar with these sorts of things so you've got to give them some background info too.

Completely understand and agree. I will gladly try to help as much as I can (if needed) by monitoring this thread and trying to help answer problems and questions. I am new to the PS3 world (about a week now). I am at work right now, and can't spend much time on here.

Well, I am having trouble staying connected to the PSN network. I am going through a Linksys router, and everything worked fine until I undated last night to 1.8. Now i can not stay connect it kicks me off. I did the internet test as stated in the first post...NAT type: FAILED...fixed my settings on the router to open up those ports, now it says the same thing..it did say NAT2 at one point but now it is not....any help would be great!

I get these two error message
80710101---when log in to PSN error occurs
80130208---when NAT FAILED appears

Are you wifi connected or wired? Can you DMZ the PS3 in your router? Some people are just having issues after the update.. I haven't seen those errors myself.

There are no other options.. Either UPnP works or you disable it and manually forward the ports, or you just DMZ the PS3. That's it when it comes to using a router. If I were you I'd start from scratch both on the PS3 side and the router.. try it all again because you must be doing something wrong.. and don't forget to power cycyle everything before you try it. good luck.

alvaro_1217 my D-Link doesn't like Firefox to change some of the setting, try IE if you are using Firefox or some other browser. And make sure to apply and/or save setting once you have changed them, as I have been caught out with that.. forgetting to save the setting before I rebooted the router!

I FANAILY GOT IT TO NAT 2 AFTER 12 HRS OF WORK (LOL) FOR PEOPLE THAT DONT WORK THIS IS WHAT I DID I REINSTALL MY ROUTER I OPEN ALL PORTS AND ALSO OPEN THEM ON YOUR BRODBAND MODEM TOO. SEE IF THAT WILL WORK FOR SOME OF YA. THANKS FOR HELP.

Just remember to have a firewall software running on your PC if all the ports are open!

My modem is the Netgear 8*** cant remember the rest but yeah, wireless modem / router combo. I am on the DSL2 (Australian) network through optus, and well, the Router hates their network. So i get constant dropouts etc. So i couldnt tell if it was due to FW 1.8 or my crap net. I will forward the ports and set a static IP when i get home from work, and see if it makes a difference.

Hey man!
I have the same problem whit my linksys router, when I follow this tutorial, I can't seem to find the NAT you talk about.
I go to Connection Test, and when it comletes it shows two things: "Obtain IP address : succeeded, Internet Connection Succeeded" and thats it, nothing NAT or anything..
Help?

Are you talking about the screen on the PS3? If so Slide down to the bottom, it is the last two you are look at PNP and NAT. Sometimes it does not show you anything so just restart the PS3 and have a look.

Just a quick note on this, since I updated to the 1.80 firmware my NAT type changed to 3, but if you disable the Media Server connection then it will change back to NAT type 2.

You know that means that means you just need to open something up, right?
